Three steps, no catch

  1. 1

    Enter once a month

    One free entry per person per month. It covers every prize drawn that month, so there's nothing to keep doing.

  2. 2

    Readers reach a milestone

    Every 50,000 reader visits across the whole site completes a milestone. It measures our readership, not anything you do.

  3. 3

    A winner is drawn in public

    Each draw uses public randomness anyone can check, and the prize ships straight from the retailer to the winner.

You'll get a confirmation email. No account, no purchase, no shipping address unless you win.

Where prizes come from

  • 50%of qualifying revenue goes into the Community Fund every month
  • 100%of the fund goes to prizes, sales tax, and shipping them to winners
  • Publicledger of every dollar in and out, with monthly statements

Unspent money carries forward to future prizes. It never comes back to us. If a milestone arrives before the fund can cover it, we pay the difference ourselves, and the ledger shows it.

Questions

Full details →
Does visiting more pages give me a better chance?

No. Your chance depends only on your one monthly entry. Milestones measure the site's overall readership, and the meter updates in rounded steps so no one can see their own visits move it.

Where does the prize money come from?

Half of our qualifying revenue (ads, affiliate commissions, and sponsorships) goes into the Community Fund, and every dollar in it goes to prizes and getting them to winners. The ledger shows every dollar in and out.

Do I have to buy anything or sign up for emails?

No purchase is necessary, and there are no accounts. We need an email address to contact winners. The newsletter is a separate, optional checkbox.

Who can enter?

Legal residents of the 50 US states and DC who are 18 or older, except residents of New York and Florida. One entry per person per month, and one win per person per month.

How will I know the draw was fair?

Before each draw we publish a fingerprint of the entry list. The winner is picked using a public random number that didn't exist yet when the milestone completed. Anyone can redo the math.
